Green sand desert.
The wind was like sharp blades hidden in the void, shattering the sand one after another and emitting sharp cries as it blew past Xu Qing and the captain.
After losing consciousness, Xu Qing, who was now in a frenzy, rushed over from afar. His speed was so fast that he instantly arrived 100 feet away from the captain.
As the word 'Junior Brother' echoed, Xu Qing's footsteps suddenly stopped 100 feet away.
His eyes were red and filled with chaos as he stared fixedly at the figure in front of him. When this figure entered his vision, there was a struggle in his eyes and he sobered up for a mont.
The confrontation between human nature and divinity also beca extrely intense at this mont. Xu Qing trembled. He recognized his eldest senior brother but he couldn't control the hunger in his body.
"Eldest Senior Brother…"
Xu Qing's voice was hoarse. The instant he spoke, the abyss ford by the confrontation between human nature and divinity swallowed him again. Xu Qing let out a painful wail and turned to head into the distance!
He actually restrained himself from getting close to Eldest Senior Brother!
This scene caused Chen Erniu's expression to change.
He understood Xu Qing and also understood the pain Xu Qing was enduring at this mont. Hence, he was well aware what it ant to restrain oneself in this state…
This both indicated Xu Qing's exceptional qualities and emphasized his own imnse significance in the eyes of the other.
Chen Erniu's heart ward.
"Silly kid."
He smiled and shook his head. After that, he took a deep breath. At the next instant, a face appeared in his eyes. When the eyes of the face opened, there was still a face in its pupils.
One after another, under the endlessness, a blue light rose from the captain's body. His body swayed and he instantly disappeared.
When he appeared, he was already in front of Xu Qing.
Xu Qing's expression distorted as Chen Erniu spoke softly.
"Junior Brother, if you're hungry, eat."
With that, he lifted his hand and placed it in front of Xu Qing.
Xu Qing's body trembled. He lifted his head and stared at his eldest senior brother in front of him. The desire that ca from his life's instinct, the vortex that ca from the confrontation between human nature and divinity, completely erupted at this mont.
He suddenly opened his mouth and bit the captain's arm.
Blood dripped as he tore the flesh and swallowed.
As he ate, Xu Qing's body felt comforted. However, his heart was in pain. He wanted to control himself. He didn't want this to happen.
However, the envelopnt of the abyss made it impossible for him to do so. Hence, his expression beca sinister and crazier as he whimpered.
That was the resistance of human nature!
The captain smiled and spoke softly.
"Little Qing, don't be afraid."
As he spoke, the captain allowed Xu Qing to devour his left hand. He then lifted his right hand and stroked Xu Qing's hair, hugging his body in his arms.
"Eat, eat more. This matter should have been done by the old man. However, who asked to be your eldest senior brother? I can do it too."
"Eat, eat until you're full. We still have big things to do."
Xu Qing's body trembled and the struggle in his eyes grew even more intense. An extrely terrifying thought appeared in his mind.
He wanted to… completely devour this Eldest Senior Brother in front of him without leaving anything. He wanted to eat him up completely.
More importantly, in these few days, since humanity and divinity fused, this was the first ti he felt another type of desire other than hunger.
That was the thirst for blood!
He wanted to suck the captain's blood dry!
When this thought rose, Xu Qing felt an extre pain in his heart.
He didn't want to!
At this mont, his devouring action suddenly paused.
Xu Qing let out a whimper. A few breaths later, the purple light on his entire body erupted, forming an overwhelming force that forcefully pushed the captain's body hundreds of feet away.
Looking at the captain's arm that had already been half-eaten by him, the struggle in Xu Qing's eyes grew even more intense. He abruptly lifted his right hand and directly put it into his mouth, pulling out the flesh he had swallowed piece by piece.
As for those that had made their way into his stomach, Xu Qing decisively cut open his abdon, reaching in with his left hand, and extracting them piece by piece.
Blood splattered all over the ground.
What was strange was that the blood… was like beads, rolling on the ground. Xu Qing's sinister face appeared on each of them.
As Xu Qing dug out the flesh he had swallowed, he struggled intensely. The collision of human nature and divinity was unprecedentedly intense at this mont.
The captain stood in the distance and looked at Xu Qing. His expression revealed a hint of heartache but he didn't move.
He knew that… only by awakening Xu Qing's humanity could he truly overco the trial of touching divinity.
"Back then…" The captain's mind recalled the past when he was sealed. A hint of pain surfaced in his eyes.
A while later, following Xu Qing's actions, more and more blood appeared. Finally, this blood actually ford a totem on its own outside his body.
From the sky, one could see that this totem was a face.
That face covered its eyes with a pained expression. Its entire body was blood-red, as though blood was continuously flowing.
Its form was like that of Crimson Goddess.
But the appearance was of Xu Qing!
However, at the center of the totem, Xu Qing, who was continuously digging out flesh, was struggling intensely. This was because he discovered that the thought of devouring his eldest senior brother hadn't disappeared.
As for Eldest Senior Brother's missing left arm, it caused his pain to erupt continuously.
Finally, Xu Qing let out a roar that didn't sound human. He then turned and sped into the distance at full speed.
He wanted to take advantage of the rise of human nature and leave this place. He was about to be unable to suppress the hunger and it made him go crazy. He wanted to leave this place and go sowhere else to devour everything.
His vision was blurry and his world was distorted. The divinity was indifferently telling him that everything that was beneficial to evolution had to be done.
Beastly nature was a weapon that was released under the control of divinity.
However, human nature kept reminding him of his dignity and bottom line as a human.
There were so things that couldn't be done.
So people couldn't be given up.
So wills had to persevere even in death!
Xu Qing quickly left.
As he left, the face pattern ford by the droplets of blood on the ground rose and whistled behind him, emitting divine might.
The captain silently looked at Xu Qing's back view and followed.
Ti flowed by and Xu Qing didn't stop running. The captain's appearance ignited the struggle in his heart. Amidst the fusion of human nature and divinity, his madness far exceeded what it used to be.
"Who I am… isn't important."
"No, this is very important. I'm Xu Qing!"
"My past isn't important anymore."
"Very important!"
"The people I et in my life are just food."
"No!!"
In Xu Qing's heart, two different consciousnesses gradually appeared amidst the struggle and roars. Among these two consciousnesses, one was indifferent and the other was in pain.
The indifferent consciousness was divinity and the carrier was the bloody face behind Xu Qing.
The painful consciousness was human nature and the carrier was Xu Qing's unwillingness to give up.
During this process, the other nascent souls of his didn't change but the power of the Purple Moon on his body continued to erupt.
Unknowingly, the Purple Moon Nascent Soul had already reached the perfected third tribulation, but the tribulation actually didn't descend. It allowed his Purple Moon Nascent Soul to continue rising until it reached the fourth tribulation and reached the perfected fourth tribulation.
It continued until the fifth tribulation!
It still erupted and reached the great circle of the fifth tribulation!
It still didn't stop and broke through amidst the rumbling.
His Purple Moon Nascent Soul directly stepped into the Dao Nurturing realm!
Outside Xu Qing's body, amidst the intertwining purple lights, an illusory purple secret repository appeared faintly and descended.
Or rather, this wasn't a secret repository. This was… a divine repository ford by the power of the god!
At this mont, the sky lost color and the desert churned.
As the power of the Purple Moon expanded, Xu Qing's struggles began to weaken. His humanity was rapidly dimming. The feeling of hunger was about to replace everything and his thirst for blood was about to conquer everything.
The face ford by the blood behind him seed to be smiling, an indifferent smile.
It was going to win.
At this mont, a sudden change occurred!
Xu Qing suddenly stopped in his tracks. He stood up there and looked 100 feet in front of him. His entire body seed to be covered in countless goosebumps, spreading and quivering.
His mind churned with unprecedented waves.
It was as though what he saw 100 feet away attracted all his thoughts and understanding.
It was an iron box.
The tal box contained so blood-red soil, and in the soil…
A flower was blooming!
The only distinctive feature is the noticeable serration along the edges of its leaves. It has a total of seventeen leaves, and in the center of each leaf, there is a strange symbol ford by threads.
This symbol gazed like a face. So were crying and so were laughing.
After Xu Qing saw this plant, it was as though millions of lightning bolts had collapsed in his mind at the sa ti and surged into his entire body. His soul seed to be tearing apart.
Countless scenes and countless mories rapidly rose from the unimportant places in his mind, occupying everything.
"The heavenfate flower, also known as the life-extension blaze and the divine spirit grass. It is a mutated variant of the divine-class plant, compound wood. According to records, there are a total of 73 variants, but only the first variant can be used in dicine. It grows in any area within a forbidden zone, but there are no rules to dictate where it might be found. It is extrely rare.
"Its effects consist of regenerating broken limbs and even reigniting one's life force. Other than soul injuries, it can cure everything."
Xu Qing walked over trembling and knelt in front of the plant. He then lifted his hand and gently stroked it.
"Heavenfate flower…"
He had searched for many years but still couldn't find it… the heavenfate flower that could extend Captain Lei's life back then.
"Captain Lei…"
Tears rolled down from Xu Qing's eyes, tracing his cheeks and falling onto the sandy ground, leaving darkened spots like ink stains.
This was the tears of human nature.
The blood-red face behind him collapsed, transforming into countless drops of blood that gushed in through the wound on Xu Qing's body.
In the distance, the captain stood there and silently observed all of this. His tense heart finally relaxed and a smile erged on his face.
A person quietly erged beside him. It was the heir.
"I believe it now. Your master is definitely not an ordinary person."
The heir gazed at Xu Qing in the distance and voiced softly.
"Either he's the reincarnation of an expert from my era, or he's one of the most outstanding people in the later generations after the ancient sovereign left."
"The old man is average and can't be compared to Senior. If Senior takes in a disciple, I'll be the first to register." The captain changed his tone to flattering and fawning.
The heir glanced at the captain's expression. He didn't believe anything this person said.
"I'm just a little curious. Did you and Xu Qing take the initiative to find your master, or did your master find you?"
